    These are Oystercatchers I captured on the Exe whilst trekking over the estuary bed today
    The third one has a mussel or cockle in his beak.

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    I do like to watch these, we saw a lot in Scotland, quite amusing to watch
